MY BELIEF IN ARCHITECTURE (temporary)

Architecture is a substantial expression of human ingenuity. It represents the structural capabilities, design ideas, and social conditions of its age. It is the creation of form and space that interacts with its environment, establishing boundaries, containing content, redefining context, reflecting political statement and dictating human behavior. Architecture is a precise entity adapting itself to its user and environment, a formal response satisfying its prescription. Architecture is the creation of effect, capable of evolving through proactive or reactive changes. The direction in which architecture is heading is completely operable structural environments, fully controllable and manageable, that blurs the lines between design and evolution.
